La Tilica Anejo

La Tilica Anejo

La Tilica Añejo Tequila is a rich, barrel-aged Mexican tequila offering smooth notes of vanilla, oak, and spice in a collectible skull-shaped bottle.

Available sizes

La Tilica Añejo is a high-pedigree spirit produced at Destiladora Juanacatlán (NOM 1551) in the heart of Jalisco. While many brands aim for generic luxury, La Tilica is a tribute to El Día de los Muertos (The Day of the Dead). The name "La Tilica" is a playful Mexican term for death, and each hand-painted, skull-shaped bottle is inspired by the vibrant Michoacán culture and traditional sugar skulls.

Beyond its iconic vessel, the liquid is a masterpiece of highland patience. Crafted from 100% Blue Weber Agave, the spirit is matured in second-use American White Oak barrels for 18 to 22 months. This extended rest allows the tequila to absorb deep woody tannins and dried fruit notes, creating a profile often compared to a premium Highland Scotch.

At 40% ABV, this 750ml bottle is the definitive choice for tequila delivery in Nairobi for collectors and those seeking a gift with profound cultural significance.

The Sensory Experience: Tasting Notes

Aroma: An elegant and sophisticated nose. You’ll find rich scents of roasted agave, medium oak wood, and raisins, with a faint, refreshing hint of citrus peel.

Palate: Seductively smooth and full of flavor. The palate is dominated by vanilla fudge and dark honey, beautifully balanced by distinct oak wood and a surprising hint of sweet melon.

Finish: A memorable and refined finish featuring caramel and smoky notes, with a lingering warmth that speaks to its 1.5+ years of barrel aging.

The Master Mixologist’s Serve: The Midnight Marigold

The Sipping Ritual: Because of its complex "vanilla fudge" notes, La Tilica Añejo should be served neat in a crystal snifter. Avoid ice to prevent the delicate raisin and honey undertones from being muted.

The Añejo Manhattan: Shake 60ml of La Tilica Añejo with 20ml of sweet vermouth and a dash of chocolate bitters. The smoky finish of the tequila creates a "Mexican Manhattan" that is a favorite in Westlands' cocktail lounges.

The Sweetened Sip: Pair it with traditional Mexican caramel (Cajeta) or a slice of dark chocolate cake. The tequila’s oaky spice cuts through the richness, acting as the ultimate digestive.

Why Choose La Tilica Añejo?

18-Month Small-Batch Aging: Matured significantly longer than the 12-month industry minimum, resulting in a much deeper, more "whiskey-forward" flavor profile.

Highland Agave Purity: Sourced from the lowlands of Jalisco (Valles) but crafted with highland techniques, providing a robust, earthy agave foundation.

Handcrafted Glass Art: The skull-shaped bottle is a tribute to the Wixárika culture, making it one of the most visually stunning luxury gifts in Nairobi.

Distillery Heritage: Produced under NOM 1551, a distillery known for its unwavering commitment to quality and community-driven production methods.
